My Sansui Collection

Sansui and Pioneer Freak
Hi guys, generally lurk in here the most, have posted some pictures of my hifi collection in the Vintage Hifi forum, its mainly Sansui and other 'brands' as I prefer Sansui the most.
For some reason I could not post these pics in this forum, so heres the link: http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/showthread.php?t=211446 Some of you may have already seen these pics anyway but just thought I'd cross-post, it might give some inspiration. :D

Enjoy :)

Cheers
Glen

Inspiration... or jealousy! ;)

Very nice collection. I take it that they're not all hooked up at once... which units do you find yourself listening to most?
 
Thanks :) I always find myself going back to the AU20000 or the AU9900. Those two Sansui's have superb sound. I used to rotate the gear a lot but finding now I'll have a setup connected for longer periods these days.
I'm currently restoring my AU555 which will be used, once its been run in with all new caps/transistors. :)

Cheers
Glen.

Glenn,

Your collection looks great!!! I like the old Sansui tube receiver on the left (far left third shelf up). -thats a Sansui, right?

I've been wanting to get into my AU555 and really give it a new life. You will have to tell me how it sounds when your done!
 
Thanks :) Yes that sure is a Sansui tube receiver, Model SM-18. Nice old thing, sounded sweet the last time I had it running, which was about 5 years ago.
Will let you know about the AU555, I'm putting Nichicon Muse/Panasonic FC caps in so it should come up sounding pretty good I hope! :)

Cheers
Glen

I don't blame you. That AU20000 looks fantastic and must sound terrific as well. I hope one day to add one of these to my collection. :)
 
Thanks :) I try and give most of them good run every so often, some in the display need attention, they're on my restoration 'to do list' :D

Cheers!
Glen
